A new atomization model for prefilming airblast atomizers is presented and applied in the
Large-Eddy Simulation of an academic experiment. The model, named PAMELA, expresses …

In modern jet engines mostly air blast atomizers are used for the liquid fuel injection. The
prediction of the spray generated by such atomizers was for a long time not feasible …

Prefilming airblast atomization is becoming widely used in current aero engines.
Fundamental studies on the actual annular configuration of airblast atomizers are difficult to …

This study deals with sliding-mode nonlinear observers for a flux-controlled active magnetic
bearing (AMB) operated with zero-bias flux. The Lyapunov sliding-mode observer (LSMO) …

Lean burn combustion is increasing its popularity in the aeronautical framework due to its
potential in reducing drastically pollutant emissions (NOx and soot in particular). Its …

An innovative design of a gas turbine annular combustor is investigated analytically and
numerically. Its principal feature is the helical arrangement of the burners around the turbine …

Einen maßgeblichen Einfluss auf die Reduktion der Schadstoffemissionen in neuen
Triebwerksgenerationen hat die Kraftstoffaufbereitung in der Brennkammer. Hierzu werden …

Prefilming airblast atomisers are commonly used in gas turbine combustion system fuel
injectors. As the film propagates across the prefilmer it interacts with the high velocity gas …

The control of joint stiffness is a fundamental mechanism used to control human movements.
While many studies have observed how stiffness is modulated for tasks involving shoulder …

The present work is focused on the airblast atomization in a gas turbine model combustor.
Swirl flows in such combustion chambers form an inner recirculation zone that can develop …
